Yes hello it is I Kurt's Secret Son


WWE went HD in 2008, 30 years ago.
TNA went HD in 2013, 30 years ago.
NJPW went HD in 2014, 30 years ago.
AEW went HD in 2019, also 30 years ago.

The numbers don't lie

AEW should be shot on film in a smoky bingo hall with a desynched audio track

Then Jim cornette would actually like it

I wish AEW shot their shows with 30 year old cameras. That would be sick as hell.

Is there anyone from that time that they could bring out for Eddie?

I like AEW because the match, story, and production quality are better. MJF's entire run was still better than the Poopline.

The faces he makes while posting are inexcusable! When he writes a post his face is like a troll double checking bones to see if there's any meat left! When I post I look like a peacock softly kissing a rose! Didn't his parents provide him with a posting mirror to practice forums faces growing up?

Yet you’ve got the Brooklyn Brawlerr 2.0 as the continental champion - having won a tournament with a dozen people more talented than he is, feuding with people he doesn’t hold a candle to.

At least Roman has a whole faction to help him win.

Was the 30-year-old camera comment and minimal storytelling a jokey reference to something? I can't imagine preferring AEW over WWE and still buying into the Fedpilled talking points of WWE being cinema and having better storylines lol.
